Ep 14: Leadership walkarounds - ritualistic peacocking or solid trust building?
Description
We've all heard about or been part of them - leader walkarounds.
Are walkarounds backed by solid evidence - do they build break down silos, enhance trust, and foster psychological safety, or more symbolic peacocking activities to be *seen* to care, rather than *actually* caring?
